Canadian Fashion Retailer Groupe Dynamite Announces Expansion into the U.S. and international markets

MONTREAL, May 23, 2013 /CNW Telbec/ - Widely popular and ever-expanding,
fashion retail giant Groupe Dynamite opened its first-ever Dynamite
American retail location Friday, May 17, 2013, in New York, following
the huge success of Garage, which launched in the U.S. in 2007.

Groupe Dynamite, a Canadian retailer who has been providing customers
with on-trend fashion for more than 38 years, is set to open three more
U.S. Dynamite stores and three international locations in 2013. Over
the next five years, Dynamite is expected to see approximately 60 new
stores. Garage, which currently has 33 American retail locations, will
open three more in the U.S. and six more internationally by the end of
this year.

"We are very pleased to be opening our doors to our neighbours south of
the Canadian border," said Groupe Dynamite President, Anna Martini,
"Dynamite has been warmly received in this new market and is quickly
becoming a hot name on the street - this is exciting, as we've already
seen such amazing growth and success with Garage!"

To support its expansion, Groupe Dynamite has largely focused on social
media, by providing fans and followers with relevant and original
content in both Canada and the U.S. through top social media channels -
Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Pinterest.
